Williams’ late TDs help KC rally past 49ers in Super Bowl

Associated Press  

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — For Damien Williams, the trip to the Super Bowl end zone was especially long. Williams’ 38-yard touchdown run — his second score in the final 2:44 — punctuated the Kansas City Chiefs’ 31-20 comeback victory over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night. “It doesn’t feel real yet.” Williams finished with 104 yards rushing on 17 carries, and added 29 yards on four receptions. Hearing the doubt, I bring a lot of attitude to this game.” Williams joined the Chiefs in 2018 and was a big factor in this year’s postseason run to the franchise’s first Super Bowl title since 1970. Afterward, Williams’ cap, T-shirt and smile said he was a Super Bowl champion.
